I believe I can overcome that by taking more interest in the subject and overcoming my fear. But I also feel that the different topics have been approached in different settings and I felt uncomfortable with functions, especially the exponential and Continue Reading...
(Weisstein "Menger Sponge" 2009) It is created by dividing a cube into 27 equivalent cubes. This resembles a Rubik's cube. The central cube is then removed. Each of the remaining cubes are then divided into 27 cubes each of which the central cube is Continue Reading...
